70. Colonel THORNEasked the Minister of Munitions the number of men and women who have been discharged from the various shipyards, national and controlled firms, for the week ending 16th November?
§ Mr. BRIDGEMANI have been asked to answer this question. It is not possible to supply precise information in reply 3429 to my hon. Friend's question. Reports have been received from the chief industrial centres in the country, and from these reports it appears that the number of actual discharges up to the present has not assumed large proportions.
